Christmas Tree Ornaments

These hand-cut tree ornaments are my design project for The Scrappy Tree.My family is celebrating with an outdoor Christmas Buffet on the 25th. So these are something relatively simple I made to decorate the garden.

Each ornament consists of 2 identical handcut shapes with a slit in the middle. They slot together to form a four sided ornament. As my friend Sandi M. said : some projects are more 'me' and these are one of them. They reflect my love of defined shapes and pure form. The Prima scarlet against the green leaves is probably one of my favourite Christmas colour combos.

What beautiful ornaments, the red card looks so festive and fantastic against the green leaves.I love the detailed patterns too...almost like snow flakes (which is what covers my garden too!) I hope you have a wonderful garden party! Thankyou for visiting my blog and your lovely comment :)
